Wojo

[brandx]

I don't want this pretty boy at Marquette!

So your worry with a new coach is the way he looks? Let me email Cords to make sure he takes that into consideration.

Who the heck is Kieth Hernadez?

After TC and Brent, it's time for a coach who won't scare the ladies.

From where I'm sitting, this smacks of Lovell liking Wojo for whatever reason, and being locked in him. Just one man's opinion.

Buzz always called Shemp whenever he needed a wingman.

OK, I'll bite - why do you think that is the case?

[NavinRJohnson]

Perhaps we were a bit hasty on that Bruce Weber thing. He still available?

Love to say I have a reason...was just my initial reaction. Had to come from somewhere. If Wilde and Cords were looking at The likes of Smart and Howland, even, Cuonzo, and now were talking Wojo?

Mets baseball player in the 1980s, Seinfeld joke.

Didn't you drive him to the airport?

Played for NY Mets. Knows nothing about basketball but, why not? I hear he knows someone who went to Duke.

Showing interest doesn't mean he's the next coach. I believe the searchers are doing their job. Like when you buy a house you also look at more expensive ones. Just to be certain of value. And you look at the lesser houses too to be certain you've done a thorough review.

I'm not worried. Actually, I'm somewhat glad it's taking, gasp, at least one week. We need to be diligent!!!!!

[NavinRJohnson]

I'm only 33% joking.

[mujersey]

So he says time to leave Duke is approaching since Coach K is staying 5 more years...so get hired by Marquette and leave for Duke in 5 years...unbelievable.

[Newsdreams]

A friend of mine floated Wojo's name a week ago as a joke to get a rise out of this board....and now there are real articles stating that MU is interested in him. Geez, I hope MU does not hire Wojo.

So your friend is the SOURCE!

Thats why im totally against hiring "top" assistants!

I knew who Keith Hernandez is - a cokehead who played for the Cards and Mets. I think he won championships with both, if I recall correctly.

I just wasn't sure about Kieth Hernadez

[MUfan12]

Doc's son played for Wojo. It's not a coincidence MU has talked to him.

When you are a recruiting assistant at Duke University, shouldn't you be a little higher than 17th?  Shouldn't you be top 10 at a minimum and maybe top 5?

It's Duke for crying out loud.

If UCLA supposedly recruits itself, couldn't the same be said of Duke?

[NavinRJohnson]

I've been an RTPer...actually I haven't, but I'm totally cool with this taking some time. However, at this point, I am of the opinion its time to end the madness and figure it out. Brings me back to a question I asked a week or so ago...does the admin still view basketball as the same valuable asset they once did? If the answer is no, that's cool, I have plenty of other things to do. If the answer is yes, time to up the game and make something happen.

[NavinRJohnson]

Maybe this is just a well placed leak to make the cuonzo Martin announcement look better to everyone.

Sure but let's not get logic in the way. 17th sounds like a Pitino or Cal in the making. Thought we were looking for top tier. Guess my definition and MU's are different. It will be time to move if this is a flop.

Great point.  Just what I was thinking.  And why do we have to be his trial job before he jets back to Duke.  Or if he sucks we have to start over.  Would rather have Martin even though I don't want him either.
